Pros

The pay was decent but please run from this company

Cons

The management is absolutely poor. My line manager was an absolute fraud who pretended to care. She lied and multiple reports about me and dressed up her “concern” as her saving her own tail. You will be overworked and shamed because of the lack of support. You are expendable and depends on if your manager truly cares about you.

Pros

Flexible hours PTO (when your workload allows you to take it)

Cons

People are numbers No skip level meetings Work 60 hours a week Do more with less What raise or bonus? Acquisition by the investment firm trio will bring worse working standards. Profit. Profit. Profit for the top.
